Great, bright yellow flowers in winter. It should be pruned well after flowering to prevent the plant from becoming straggly. It's flowers are daisy like and are bunched on it's dense foliage. Does well in well drained soil. Good for seaside gardens, informal planting and great for cottage gardens. a great plant to try. pokerboy.
